Hi,

I developing a vb6 program which browses to a given url, when I recieve the page I would like to automatically login to the url, I can open the url ok but I cant seem to send the relevant username and password to the browser.  I've been trying several methods but I'm stumped. Is it possible to use "SendKeys" to the browser or do I have to change to some other method.

I can use "SendKeys" to other apps such as Notepad but not to a browser. Any ideas would be much appreciated.

Thanx in Advance

Steve

Not a big fan of SendKeys myself. Your first problem is that you need to ensure the textbox (or whatever control) that is suppose to receive the username and password has the focus. SendKeys targets the focused window.

Sendkeys would require the textbox in the url to have the focus -- on most websites, it doesn't.

Most likely the user will have to enter that information no matter what -- unless the website has a "remember me" option, or the username/id is passed via a GET protocall (that is, it's listed in the url, even if encrypted).

Thanks Guys,

Looks like I might need to find some kind of workaround or just login like like normal humans!!!!!!!!
